Stream of Conscientiousness in written form.

I find the concept of the Big Bang theory tiresome. It is an argument for the birth of the universe that is, at best, as flawed in its simplicity as the statement, "God said " let there be light".

These are both models of the universe that are based on the conceptualization that at some abstract point in the past, everything sprang into existence from a single miracle. Even at this late date, even the proponents of so called scientific endeavors insist that the big bang is a fact of the universe, while the more scientific still know it as a good theory. It just doesn't hold water, as both ideas have been shown to have holes.

As modern scientific process has shown time and again that there are holes in the beliefs of religions, magic has shown the holes in the beliefs of science. Assuming, of course, that one can wrest themselves from the paradigm of what i call "blind science" which is also called "scientific materialist reductionism", and come to a state of un-belief. Un-belief is the belief if nothing as being true, also known as nihilism, except that when you believe in nothing at all you become free to believe whatever you wish. Something science missed. The current magic current is gathering steam, and their occult practitioners are attempting to unravel the greatest mysteries of humankind. Yours truly not withstanding. It is my goal to research the occult magics of the past, and make them available to all. The hidden must be made known, the private, public. Otherwise, we risk becoming that which we rebel against. A small cabal of secret hoarders. Not unlike our so called leaders. Eventually religion will rise again to expose the holes of magic and the cycle shall begin again. In a cyclical universe, it must be an accepted truth. The only difference is that magical paradigms have more peace and cooperation on their side.

I will not claim to have absolute knowledge in regard to the origins of the universe, but I can spot a dogma when I see one. This is not to say I have no theories as to the nature of the universe, but I am at least capable of discerning fact from conjecture and theory. I have a model that works for myself in the here and now, and someday it may have to be altered, upgraded, or declared obsolete. Such is the path of belief cycles over time. It seems to me now that if the universe is infinite, that we should attempt to grapple with the repercussions of such a concept. If it is a ripple of space-time, then we should be looking toward what will allow us to move forward. It is here where we deal with that which is fated to occur, and that which is free will. What's the difference?

That being said, it becomes apparent to me that everything is in a state of flux. Everything changes over time, and nothing remains a stagnant pond, lest mosquitoes and other blood sucking parasites gain a foothold. Even the meaning of change changes. Supposed facts of the laws of nature have been altered and editted, introduced to fudge factors so they keep working, and never declared obsolete until it becomes obvious to anyone but the dullest mind on the planet.

It was Stephen Hawking that admitted that the reason that entropy increases over time is because of our need to measure time in terms of entropy. If the eventual destruction and decay of systems is an inherent fact of the universe, why do we hold to institutions that are no longer relevant in the same way that they were at their inception? We hold onto relics of the past as if we are somehow safer with them than we are in exposing ourselves to that which is new. It takes bold people with bold ideas before existence in the new and undiscovered country can bear fruit.
In the past, the Americas were built out of defiance of the old. In spite if the oligarchy, a new nation was born, in the new world. Likewise we, the bold, must be prepared to strike out a new life for ourselves in spite of the old world tyrannies.
When our government is too oppressive, where do we escape to? Every landmass is claimed. Excepting the Internet. The world web. This is where the next battle is fought.
Many think that the third world ear is fought in the middle east. Or perhaps Africa, or Europe, or even the united states. It is fought in the minds of every person connected to the Internet.

The Butterfly Effect shows us that all events and objects are connected in some way, and that any action has a causality of some sort on the future events that follow it. In this way I can extrapolate that I am the person I am because of the fact that I was kicked out of an apartment complex when I was in the 7th grade. It's an infinitum argument, in which you can argue that you are the person that you are because of who your mother was, and her mother before her, right down to which cells diverged from each other many millions of years ago when we were all made up of protoplasm and proteins.

In Noetic Science, we discover the idea that our thoughts are made up of energy, which therefore have mass. Mass can have effects on the material world in the general sense, according to Newtonian physics, which was years behind the specific implications of such a broad statement. Noetics at a very basic level implies that the words we speak and the thoughts we think have an effect on the surrounding material world around us.

In Quantum Psychology, one can see that the words we speak have a profound impact upon our perceptions of the world. In essence, that which we speak becomes our reality for ourselves personally. If you state your negativity, those around you will perceive you as a negative person. Their perceptions and reactions can very well cause you to be the negative person you thought you were not. Your mind is merely translating any visual information it receives, organizing it into something that makes sense based on your previous experiences. In this manner, we metaphorically and literally see the world different than anyone else on the planet ever would or could.

Chaos Magick shows how powerful belief systems can become for the individual, depending on their perspective in how useful it is in their lives. If it is not useful for your life goals, let it go until it is relevant again. It is never assumed that anything is of complete uselessness, otherwise it would never have existed in the first place.

So what does it all mean? Is this just a huddled mass of theories in which we all extrapolate our own meaning out of the universe?
Well, yes and no.
While it seems to be the case that we are merely pawns in a grand chessboard, it doesn't change the fact that even the pawns in this chessboard can break rules if they so choose to. Or if they are aware that the rules are arbitrary, and need not exist at all.

I aim to break the rules, in an effort to fully realize what kind of being I can be without the limitations of conventional trivialities of so-called "reality".
Sigilization is the condenced and concentrated visual form of a will or intent. For the artsticly inclined, it is the easiest and most effective means of learning magic. It is easy to learn, and depending on you chosen method of charging it with energy, the sigils effects can range from fairly benign synchronicity to grand dreams coming true.
It's rooted in ancient mystism, alchemical symbolism, as well as astrological schools of thought. It was studied by Christian Gnostics, Jewish mystics, and gypsy witches. More recently it has emerged in golden dawn magic, chaos theory and magic, and has many paralels in quantum entanglement theory.
I'll not go into sigil manufacture and maintenance here, as there are several texts and books on the subject already. The Spare method is the method which has provided the best results for me, so it can be assumed for the remainder of this explanation that is what I am referring to when I speak of sigils.

Seeing as how sigils are generally charged with an associative element, passion and love sigils are red=fire element, how would a digital sigil be charged? Digitally, of course. But to understand the digital realm, one must break down what it means in element based terms. Information. Ether.

Digital form of Gnosis.
Gnosis is generally achieved at the mental state of no thought. When the mind goes blank and a person is on auto pilot, the unconscious mind becomes susceptible to outside influences.

But what of a digital sigil? Surely a collection of ones and zeroes cannot be released into the Internet without a method of destruction, can it?

A digital sigil can act as a defensive measure should your website be taken offline. Such as the burying in earth, or the burning in fire methods of more conventional sigil castings, the returning of the power to the source in which you borrowed it. In the case of the Internet, the representation of power would disperse around the net to cause the desired effects. Considering how vast and information dense the Internet is, and that people interact with information quickly and at every moment of the daily, it seems safe to say that results may be more powerful and faster acting.
To say nothing of the increased odds that the butterfly effect might turn to your favor.
